The "horizontal" distance is 8-2 = 6.
The "vertical" distance is 7-3 = 4.
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the straight line distance is then
√(6² + 4²) = √52 = 2√13 ≈ 7.21
Height of each floor = 5 meters
time to travel from the first floor to 68th floor = ?
Speed of elevator = 7.5m/s
While an elevator travels from 1st floor to 68th floor, we will multiply the height of floor with 67 to get the distance covered by the elevator form 1st floor to 68th floor, the height of 68th floor will not be counted in the distance because an elevator reaches the 68th floor not covered the height of that floor.
Distance = 5 x 67 = 335m
Now calculate the time by using the formula;
time = distance / speed
= 335m / 7.5m/s
= 44.667 seconds
Thus, an elevator will take 44.667 seconds to reach 68th floor.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>For a system of equations to have infinitely many solutions, the equations have to be lineary dependent, (i.e. one of the equations is a multiple of the other equation). For the given equation to have infinitely many solutions, the second equation have to be a multiple of the first equation.
The first equation can be rewritten as y - 2x = -5
The second equation is the first equation multiplied by 2, i.e. 2(y - 2x= -5) = 2y - 4x = -10
Therefore, the correct answer is -10 (option a).</span>
All you have to do is multiply 8 by 20 which is 160
